NASCAR screwed up again!
sorry about the link. It worked when I posted it. Tony, carl, and kevin each would have won one. tony in 05 carl in 08 and kevin this past year. Jeff and Jimmie would have won it twice since o4. Jeff in 04 and 07. That would have given him a total of 6 championships. Jimmie would have won them in 06 and 09.

NASCAR screwed up again!
I do watch NHRA from time to time. I use to be in to it a few years ago. For some reason I kind of drifted away from it. I really have no clue why I did. When I did watch it I did enjoy the races. Nascar is not my main racing series I watch. That belongs to f1. If I could get other types of racing here I would watch them more. So I am stuck watching a lot of sports car racing from Europe on my computer.

NASCAR screwed up again!
I saw last night that nascar really messed up the chase now. Now they will reset 1-10 based on the wins the driver has. The last two spots will be decided on guys in 11-20 in points with the most wins. I think I am done with nascar now. Here is some thing you long time nascar fans will like. It shows who would have won the championships if they didn't change it. http://community.nascar.com/wirerat123/blog/2010/09/21/classic_points_system.

Car mech's question
well next step would to pawn up the money for the keys. Here's what I would do if I was you. Get two keys made. Give one key to your girl and you keep the other key. In case she loses her key she will have a spare. Also if she lost the key you buy her. I would make sure she paid for a spare for you. That might teach her to keep better tack of her keys. Or you could just show her the bill after you buy the key. That also might work.

Car mech's question
Hot wiring wont do a thing. They are chiped to prevent car theft. The chip in the key sends a single to the receiver to tell it its ok to start the motor. If you try you will just put your car in limp mode. That means you will have to pay ford more money to get it unlocked then it would have cost you for a lock smith. If I remember right you could buy a blank chiped key from ford and set it up your self. I know you can do that with chevy and dodge cars. You might have to look it up in the internet on how to do it. Usually you have to put the key in the ignition and do some stuff with the key and key fob. If you can get to the owners book they will tell you how to do it.

NASCAR screwed up again!
To me nascar is losing there fans for many reasons all ready stated.But nascar is not the only racing series losing fans. Every series across the globe is losing them. Its not tv thats doing this. Its the way there ran. Putting almost 3/4 if the season on cable to me is one main reason. They also need to cut back on the races that are run. Its like baseball you care for the first few months of the new year. Come June unless your a hard core baseball fan you really don't care again in till fall. To me the nascar racing season is to long. That's what I love about f1. They only race 18-20 races a year. They go from mid march to the end of November. Every race matters in f1. At lest nascar Is not run by a guy that should be in a padded room. Though he is close to being in there. some time you guys need to google Bernie Ecclestone Ideas for f1. Some of them are out right crazy. Here are a few he has though of. Short cuts on the tracks. Medals instead of points kind of like the olympics. What he wanted was they driver with the most first places medals won the championship.

NASCAR screwed up again!
I am not sure yet if nascar screwed it up yet. I think nascar is getting sick of the same guy winning all the championship every year. I believe they have seen how other racing series have closer championships going in to the final race. The last three years the f1 championship has been won buy 11 points or less. In 2008 the f1 champion ship was won by one point. The guy that won the race thought he won the race and championship. As he was on his cool down lap celebrating. They guy that he needed to finish 6th or worst passed a guy that ran out of fuel in the last turn on the final lap. That bumped him up to 5th place. Seeing the look on the team that thought they won the championship 30 seconds before was great. I don't know about you but I would love to see some thing like that in nascar. I also heard that there doing some thing like a wild card for the last two spots in the chase. I don't know if its true but if it is I am done with nascar.

Dream Car
Wow 1200 hp on a car that weights 2000 lbs that cant be good. I know the first time I put the pedal to the floor I might need a new pair of underwear. I have seen the f650. Its a sweet looking truck. As I was looking at the site and saw a air brake knob in it. So that means you would need at lest a CDl with air brakes. That is no problem for me. I would just have no place to park the thing. I would be fine with a f250 for pulling a car trailer and a boat some day.

Dream Car
Here are a few cars I would love. They wouldn't be the colors pictured. The first one is a Lotus Exige. 190 hp, 2,000 lbs and a 0-60 in under 5 seconds. Second one is a Porsche gt3 rs. Its basically a road legal race car.

Blizzard In The Mid South
- Okay, so what do you think about this ???
I had one in high school and got made fun of because I wore it. I didn't care at the time I had a truck with no heater. If I could find it again I would wear it. The only down fall to me seemed like it got hot fast. To me they are worth the money. I think you should get the pink one. If Pete Mania can were a pink fuzzy pimp hat on tv. You can wear a pink bomber hat. Just think no one would go near a guy wearing a pink hat. Then you could keep you spots to your self.- Something you guys might want to know
I looked up my self. They said I lived at my old place in Iowa. I haven't lived there in like 8 years. I guess the internet is wrong.- An old favorite thread topic....Gas Prices.
Thanks. I will have to remember that. I also don't live in Mosinee I live like a mile or two from tropical gardens. If I left my house I could be there in like 10 mins. I just say I live in mosinee because in till a few months ago Kronenwetter didn't have a zip.- An old favorite thread topic....Gas Prices.
I thought it was 3.19 at the gas station across from the re location bar. Were I get 91 octane is about .30 more then 87. Were are you getting gas In Mosinee for cheap?- An old favorite thread topic....Gas Prices.
I think its like 3.19 here for 87 octane. Since I have turbo car I run 91 or 93 octane its like 3.50 a gallon. Even if i had a non forced induction motor I would use 91. A lot better mpgs with 91.- Mega Millions Jackpot $355 million
Not tell any one that I won it.- The new flagship Lamborghini LP700-4 is coming. :)
kind of looks like f 22 raptor with out wings. With all them sharp angles I wonder If police radar could pick it up. I will say that is one nasty looking car in a good way.- Yuck!
Raul I couldn't even think about the smells you smell. Last year my dog kept rubbing his butt on the floor. So I had to take him to the vet to find out why. The vet said it was some thing to do with scent. The vet said it would smell bad, and I should leave the room. What ever they had to pop stunk, but not the worst smell I have ever been around. I grew up next door to about 1,000 pigs all on the size of a football field. If you have ever been around a pig farm you guys know what i am talking about.- Yuck!
boxer farts are bad. My buddy has one so I know. But I don't know if any thing can beat hung over beer farts. You know there bad when even you cant stand your own smell.- Hey Bear's fans...
CBS switch games about mid way through the 3rd quarter. This was the reason. The pats have this game well in hand. So we will be switching to a closer game. That game was the jets game. Mind you I live 4 hours from Chicago. There are bear fans up here in WI I bet there ticked.- Green Bay Packers
sorry my mistake. I don't know why I thought it was at home. I guess I will be watching hockey more next month I guess.- Green Bay Packers
Yea that would be calling it nice. With that loss forget about the playoffs. They have new england, Giants, and the bears left. I don't have munch hope left for them. The only good thing about them three games is there all at home.- looking for a new cell phone
I got the lg wine 2 a few months ago. Its a flip phone with a pretty good camera. Its a basic phone. The battery will last for ever. Its also cheap. When I got it I got it for like 60 dollars. My buddies all wanted me to get a smart phone. I just go why. I am all ready paying 60 dollars a month for high speed internet. So I was not going to pay another 60 dollars a month for a data plan. I don't text or go on the net on a phone. I use a phone for what it was made for calls only. I take a few pictures from time to time. Heres a few pictures that I took with the lg wine 2.- Whats this pic from?
I think Glen is right on this. I have seen that before. I thought I have seen it in a music video or it was album art work once. I cant remember which one.- Smallies have ruined me
I can count the number of large mouth I have caught on both hands. small mouth on the other hand no. I have caught and beaten my 5 lb small mouth pb. Were I fish its not uncommon to hook in to many fish over 4 lbs. Heres my pb caught last year. Yea it is dirty. I had to beach it. No net and treble hooks flying every were. That fish was still fighting while I took the hooks out. - Okay, so what do you think about this ???
